" Rates of SVR in patients with genotype CC and in those with genotype TC or TT, according to HCV genotype, were, respectively, 50% and 17% (P < .001) in patients with genotype 1, 80% and 25% (P=.027) in patients with genotype 4, and 93% and 77% (P=.115) in patients with genotype 3."

The IL28b is still very new. The test is only available commercially since July 2010.
Even CTs or TTs can SVR and the important part is that post facto response pattern
(RVR,cEVR) trumps the IL28b.

Those of us finished with treatment do not know our IL28b genotype because the test was not available until we were finished or well into treatment.  There is just no reason to check if treatment was successful.  Some of us are surely CT or even TT.  I"ll keep my fingers crossed you come back CC, but as Bali said early response to the treatment is the best predictive factor.
